Royce da 5'9" - America lyrics

I said America, the beautiful
Land of free, home of brave
Everyone is born and raised to
Think like a dead man
When you alive you the lowest on the totem
Pole, and soon as you die
Then here goes this
Oh, now he heroic, oh, now he the coldest
Oh, now it's "He had that talent
And I didn't know it!" man listen
Being humble ain't gon' get
You out your grave
You should treat your life the
Same way you thinking
Like and go and whip it like a slave

What the fuck is "arrogant?"
That's the shit they injecting
Into us Americans
How 'bout I think I was put
Here to push European whips?
And so what if you don't like
It? I thought you'd be inspired
By the way I whip it, way I whip it
Way I whip it, way I whip it, I whip it
Right past the pretenders
The men with no passion
Who think it's possible to
Be past your potential
Like life has just ended
The spirit broken and so is the wife
The kids
Born into only knowing the White Castle menu
While the rich is born into white castles
Attending Bar Mitzvahs
The future of us niggas is in syringes
We meant for the NFL, injure the NBA
Anyway, I take popping shots
At niggas over receiving
Posthumous props from niggas any day
Maybe y'all just scared
Lost in everybody saying not to floss
So you go watch the 'Walking Dead', yeah
You in the

America the beautiful
Land of free, home of brave
Everyone is born and raised to
Think like a dead man
When you alive you the lowest
On the totem pole
And soon as you die then here goes this
Oh, now he heroic, oh, now he the coldest
Oh, now it's "He had that talent
And I didn't know it!" man listen
Being humble ain't gon' get
You out your grave
You should treat your life the
Same way you thinking
Like and go and whip it like a slave

What the fuck does humble mean?
Call me good at something
I'll say I'm good at a bunch of things
I feel my whole life, my fire should be lit
I feel my wife's pussy wet
Each time she sees my
Dick she gets excited by the way I whip it
Way I whip it
Way I whip it, she likes the way I whip it
I whip it man look here
I've been anti-corporate since daddy told me
That they force me here against my will
Without no horses or some land
Of course they saying I'm supposed
To just forget they throw
The scraps at those that can
Distract with those endorsements
Closing doors and all of those who
Buy the clothes and shoes
And booze and albums
Hope you not expecting treatment by the book
From he who wants you to forget that you
Was brought over here by the boat
I don't know why niggas say they
Money funny when it's low
Cause when you broke it's not a joke
Talk that we can't take shit with
Us when we die shit
You don't leave behind shit cause
You died without shit in

America the beautiful
Land of free, home of brave
Everyone is born and raised to
Think like a dead man
When you alive you the lowest
On the totem pole
And soon as you die then here goes this
Oh, now he heroic oh, now he the coldest
Oh, now it's "he had that talent
And I didn't know it" man listen
Being humble ain't gon' get
You out your grave
You should treat your life the
Same way you thinking
Like and go and whip it like a slave

If he's hot, expose him, then
Roll on him, we can't roll on him
Roll on his closest kin
That kind of behavior, I
Call that "Niggerdom, niggerdom"
Mentally enslave them, taze them
Then they go crazy uh, here they come
Everybody think a revolution coming
Wanna be involved in the riot
Everybody arguing out here, this how I feel:
"What in the Jiminy cracker corner
Fuck are we bickering for?"
This shit here is bigger than war
They sticking and sicken the shit
In the food that
The nigga consume so it's hidden in stores
Some shit that can kill your fertility
Damage your thinking
Limit your abilities, think about that now
The fact that y'all living is
Crazy cause alcoholism got
Black people tapping out quicker
Than Savion Glover
And we ain't no Avión lovers
We dying each time that the Hennessy pours
Our plugs are the mothers on the
Other side of our umbilical cords
Can I talk my shit?
Y'all niggas confidence dropping
Y'all letting people control y'all flow who
Don't know how y'all clocks tick
I'm disgusted
Find the money if the money don't fit
Do like me on this and
Find a different pocket only in America

Oh damn, I guess you is kinda talented
Make sure you don't forget
Where you came from, boy
Always stay humble now why don't you do that
Thing again with your tongue
You know that one thing when
You go and whip it
